If you stare into the Abyss long enough, you’ll get pretty bored.
If you stare into the Abyss long enough, your face will stay that way.
If you stare into the Abyss long enough the Abyss stares back at you, unless you’re hiding behind shrubbery.
I don’t appreciate the shocked expression from solicitors when I answer that yes, I am the homeowner.
Everything is so silly these days. Sometimes it’s good to remember this is all temporary.
If we’re supposed to get outraged when the president plays golf, should we get like half outraged when he plays miniature golf?
I don’t like government intervention, but I don’t think the free market is working on movie concessions. I like popcorn, but I don’t $5.75-for-a-small like it.
Eventually, only the five richest kings in Europe will be able to afford a drink, popcorn, and Sour Patch kids.
What annoys me most about FOX News is the rotating logo down in the corner. It looks like it’s supposed to be a 3D rotating shape, but if you pay attention it’s physically impossible. If the rotating logo is lying to me, how can I trust their news?
Thing to add to list of what my dog is afraid of: Large bronze statutes of Abraham Lincoln.
We drove past the local butcher a few weeks ago. He has a statue of a bull. Our German Shepherd became very angry; barking and growling for several minutes. I was so proud of her!
Random thought: Yesterday I went on a Michael Moore watch in the Gulf of Maine courtesy of the Bar Harbor Michael Moore Watch Company. We encountered a small school of Humpback Michael Moores. The Michael Moores surfaced all around us, blowing water out of their lungs and showing their tails as they dived below! The guide said there was a chance to see Great White Chris Christies, but none were seen. An incredible experience!
If you’ve ever swum in 20,000 feet of water and done the dead man’s float with your eyes open, you’ll know the feeling of staring into the abyss. The first time you do it, it’s quite unnerving. What if you suddenly stop floating? Hehehe.
I don’t get outraged when President Obama plays golf – I get outraged when he plays president.
But Marko, what about the pink Rosie whales and their distant cousins, the Michelle blackfish and the Big Butt Hillary porpoises?
At my theater, the sodas are start at $5 for a small. Since I always have 4 or 5 kids with me at the movies, I never buy them. I want them learn that $5 drinks are supposed to have alcohol in them.
If you stare long enough into the Abyss you won’t ever leave.
-We get a lot of solicitors in-spite of the nice signs that are so easily overlooked. I have been wanting to put one on the door that I think will permanently fix the problem, “ringing this bell is an agreement to sexual relations with the fat hairy people inside”
-I once had a friend who ran a movie theater. The cost of your ticket only covers the movie rights. The seating, lights, air conditioning, etc.. is all paid for by the concession stands. Means if you go to a movie and buy no treats you are effectively being subsidized by those who do. The real problem is the stupid high price of the cost for the rights to show the film.
-Between hollywood only being able to produce stupid/juvenile/propaganda and the dangerous gangs of illegals who crowd the theater I stopped going long time ago. Its amazing how leftists on opposite sides of things are able to tag team to ruin them.
-The left success was largely because their revolution ended up taking over all the background institutions first and the only one people pay attention to “the white house” last. I think their is a good lesson for the right where they kept trying to hold the white house but was routed on every other front.
A few random quotes on women I stumbled across.
-Ah, women. They make the highs higher and the lows more frequent. ~Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
-I have an idea that the phrase “weaker sex” was coined by some woman to disarm some man she was preparing to overwhelm. ~Ogden Nash
-They call it PMS because Mad Cow Disease was already taken.
-A highbrow is a man who has found something more interesting than women. ~Edgar Wallace
-If women didn’t exist, all the money in the world would have no meaning. ~Aristotle Onassis
-Woman begins by resisting a man’s advances and ends by blocking his retreat. ~Oscar Wilde
-No matter how good she looks, some other guy is sick and tired of putting up with her crap. ~Author Unknown
-Men at most differ as Heaven and Earth, but women, worst and best, as Heaven and Hell. ~Alfred Lord Tennyson
-Men look at themselves in mirrors. Women look for themselves. ~Elissa Melamed
-A husband only worries about a particular Other Man; a wife distrusts her whole species. ~Mignon McLaughlin
-A man chases a woman until she catches him. ~American Proverb
Story related to #8: “-They call it PMS because Mad Cow Disease was already taken.”
I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason, took my
order first. “I’ll have the rump steak, rare, please.”
He said, “Aren’t you worried about the mad cow?” “Nah, she can
order for herself.”
And that’s when the fight started…..
@Marko: The problem with whale watching tours is that boat owners make more money by doing more tours each day. The way for them to conduct more tours is to build faster boats. The problem with faster boats is that they sometimes run over Michael Moores on the way to the Michael Moore grounds. The problem for whale watchers is that, surprisingly enough, the watchers become upset when the boat they are riding turns a Michael Moore into red slush. You learn this if you live near the whale watching areas.
It might not be so bad. Once you’ve run over it, the whale is easier to watch.
Yes, this too shall pass. Unfortunately, it will pass will all the slowness, agreeability and pain of a massive kidney stone.
By illegals, do you mean people who didn’t pay to enter, or do you mean people who didn’t obey the law to enter? Hollywood takes a dim view of the first, but the second is A-OK.
If Obama plays mini golf we are to brood quietly. We get half outraged when he only plays the front nine.
If you stare into the Abyss too long, the woman is going to lose the mood.
If you stare into the Abyss too long, you’ll agree that Virgil is a weiner, and Lindsey is Queen Bitch Of The Universe.
If you stare into the Abyss too long, you start seeing Russian water tentacles.
I appreciate the shocked expression on the Jehovah Witnesses faces when I set them straight about their Cult
“…sometimes it’s good to remember this is all temporary.”—> A reminder for Sarah K?
If you stare into the Fox News rotating logo long enough, Glenn Beck will possess your soul.
Ha!! Good one Sue…you are indeed a wise mentor.
@ Live Free Or Die…
After Glenn Beck possess our soul he sells it to the highest bidder. Remember, trust in God, all others take gold.
If you star into the Abyss long enough, Rosie O’Donnell will start to look sexy to you!
If you star into the Abyss long enough, you will realize that there is no abyss and you could have been eating a McFish and McFries Served to you by McSpeaker McGuy and McWindow McWaiter McChick,instead.
Exercise your free market rights to bring in your own soda and popcorn.
I thought an Abyss was the Mother Superior of an Abbey.
I have a sign by my door: “No Solicitors – Trespassers Will Be Violated”
We go to the cheap, second run theater in town where the tickets are $2.50, so paying full price for the snacks doesn’t hurt as much.
(We generally order a large popcorn and large soda, eat them fast while we wait through the comercials and coming attractions, then get free refills before the movie starts.) *burp* 😉
Burmashave, our boat had jets! Vroom vroom vroom
@Marko: Wow. Cool.
“Thing to add to list of what my dog is afraid of: Large bronze statutes of Abraham Lincoln.”
Are we to assume that it is also afraid of Lincoln’s iron resolutions and silver clauses?
Average size of a golf course is about 195 acres. Avearge size of a miniature golf course (not the big fancy kind you find, say, across the street from Disneyland) is about half an acre. Recommended level of outrage for miniputt -> 0.26 percent. However, potential outrage increases exponentially based on the number of Mulligan shots…
“If you stare into the Abyss long enough, you’ll get pretty bored.”
If an Abyss actually did something worth watching, would it still be an abyss?
A shrubbery!
